Thanks John. I hope you're well these days. I'm not sure if I'd want to know the result of that fellow. Prayers to him.

I know this is a very, very low chance that I'd have it. From what I read, I haven't had AS long enough or severe enough to get amy, but who knows. It just scares the crap out of me that my dr is thinking it too. We've ruled out so many other things... just got a call to go down and do a urine sample to check my kidneys. Here we go. I wish he'd just order the biopsy and get it over with. Not sure what the delay is with even more bloodwork? I never get to see the bloodwork request form, not that I'd understand it anyways. Hate being kept in the dark. The latest bloods are being sent to the US for analysis.

I'm a big believer that the body knows what it's doing, and I've wondered if be being sick is my body's way of telling me I should fast, or that I'm eating something I shouldn't be. Funny that you mentioned that.
